ZIP RAR etc

Let's talk about compression.

Universal data compression programs. Like ZIP, Rar, etc.

What do you think?

SBC is the best universal file compressor at this moment.
Best mainstream choice= WinRAR.

And why does everyone use ZIP? It's worse than hell at all
sides.

Well ZIP compresses this 100MB site I downloaded into 29MB
and RAR does it down to 9MB. See the difference? And WinRar
is more handy. Like, the interface is easy, and the features
etc...
